From The Indianapolis Star, Wednesday, May 19, 1915: The Butler College examinations honor system will be replaced by a system called “student control” if a new constitution is agreed to by a vote of the student body. A special committee studied 123 collegiate student councils before making the proposed articles. Under the new constitution, the student who detects cheating many go to the cheat and tell him not to hand in his examination paper. If the accused ignores the warning, the violation then may be brought before a nine member student committee for investigation and trial. Conviction requires seven votes of the committee. Penalties range from loss of credit hours for the first offense to expulsion if convicted for a third offense. The student committee sessions are secret, but its findings will be published in the Collegian without names.
